Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site. Why active installs don’t tell the whole story →

You can choose between a white- and blacklist mode. In whitelist mode only visitors with IP addresses from the configured countries are allowed. In blacklist mode visitors with IPs from the configured countries are not allowed to login.

Credits
Kudos go out to the guys over at Maxmind for providing a lite version of their GeoIP database for free.
Same to Konstantin Kovshenin who has written a great tutorial on the WordPress Settings API which helped me a lot while cleaning up the plugin for the public.
Give big hands to sudar for his toolset for deploying WordPress plugins from GitHub. A must have, when developing WordPress plugins on GitHub.
Last but not least I send a thank you note to Gabriel Oliveira on whose work this plugin’s banner image is based.

“Tested up to” is directory metadata supplied by the plugin author. WP PlugIndex does not turn an older declaration into a claim that the plugin is incompatible.
